The Tree Sisters

Its a play on words, The Tree Sisters, or should I say the Three Sisters. The last few weeks I have put my hand to the knife, hatchet ,saw and spoke shave to make some kuksa's spoons and a hobo pipe from scrap wood. Here is a picture of the Tree Sisters. Carving is one of those additive hobby's that once I get started I just keep on going until I am out of wood. The chips pile up under my feet like the leaves in the fall.   
 

Two of the tree sisters are shown here with Shelly's large cooking spoon. It is finished and now hangs from a hook on the wall here is the shop waiting for a final sanding.  I hope to take it to its new home this weekend.  The last of the tree sisters was made last weekend .
